Today started early. I was up at 5 am with D2. She was crying and just would not go back to bed. She is getting 2 MORE teeth (poor thing already has 6 and she is only 10 months old!!) and has had a snotty nose so took pity on her and gave her a bottle. She was asleep within 10 minutes. I then started my day, coffee, email and I got dressed for a short run. I hit the front door and to my surprise I saw SNOW!!! UUGGHH. I went out and did 3 miles.

| SNOW! |
I got home and woke everyone up. It was Art Class day for D1 so we had to get moving. It went pretty seamlessly and I even had a few minutes to shower. Yeah mom! I threw a freezer meal into the crock pot and had my low cal breakfast. 1 cup of rice krispies and 1/2 cup of almond milk. YUM. I wanted to get outside to do some work but it was just too cold, wet and dreary. If Hubby would have been motivated I would have been all in but it just want happening.
I decided to clear out the fridge and use some of my sprouts for lunch. I concocted an AWESOME sandwich.
2 pieces 9 grain bread
1 wedge of Laughing Cow swiss
2-3 tablespoons of my olive hummus from last night (click
HERE for recipe)
1 hard boiled egg, sliced
sliced sweet red pepper
handful of broccoli & bean sprouts
dash of salt

| AWESOME. |
Then D1 wanted a snack. I was hungry (counting calories ALWAYS makes me cagy for the first few days) and wanted popcorn. To keep it low cal I decided to use a pinterest trick. I put 1/3 cup of popcorn kernels in a brown paper bag. Turned out great. We sprinkled parmesan cheese and some Garlic & Wine seasoning (melting pot). All that for like 70 calories!! WHOOO HOOOOO!!! D1 loved it too!!
Dinner was a freezer meal.
Garlic chicken. It was great, I think it needs more garlic for us (WE LOVE GARLIC) and I paired it with rice.
All in all a great day.
